Overview

YSG-P400 provides RF signal generation from 200 MHz to 40 GHz with −40 to +10 dBm output and switching below 200 µs. Frequency and power sweeps support repeated test sequences in laboratory, manufacturing and field setups.

The OCXO timebase provides ±0.3 ppm frequency stability. Pulse modulation, AM and FM are supported, with 10 MHz reference input/output for synchronization with other instruments.

Additional product details

The YSG-P400 Series is engineered for engineers who need RF signal generation in field-portable form. The YSG-P400 Series covers 200 MHz to 40 GHz and switches in under 200 µs, supporting rapid test sequences in R&D, manufacturing, and field environments.

The YSG-P400 Series OCXO (oven-controlled crystal oscillator) timebase provides ±0.3 ppm stability for repeatable measurements. The YSG-P400 Series also helps diagnose receiver performance issues on site.

Key Capabilities & Applications

Set RF frequency and power

Coverage is 200 MHz to 40 GHz with −40 to +10 dBm output. Frequency resolution is 0.1 Hz below 20 GHz and 0.2 Hz from 20 to 40 GHz.

Generate sweeps and modulation

Frequency and power sweeps, pulse modulation, AM and FM are supported. Pulse width ranges from 10 ns to 10 ms, with an on/off ratio greater than 60 dBc.

Synchronize a portable test setup

A 10 MHz reference input/output allows synchronization with a spectrum analyzer for scalar gain/loss measurements. The enclosure weighs less than 3 kg.

Common applications

  • Field maintenance and troubleshooting
  • Antenna alignment and path loss measurement
  • Receiver blocking and interference testing
  • On-site scalar Bode and gain/loss checks
